Abstract
Previous studies have indicated that plasma levels of peptide YY (PYY) increase significantly after a meal. The purpose of this study was to characterize the interaction of PYY and secretin in the inhibition of gastric acid secretion, and to determine whether PYY can influence acid-induced inhibition of gastric acid secretion in conscious dogs. I.v. administration of PYY at 200 pmol/kg/h inhibited pentagastrin (1 μg/kg/h)-stimulated gastric acid output (P < 0.05). PYY further augmented i.v. secretin-induced inhibition of pentagastrin-stimulated gastric acid output by 32 ± 7%, and intraduodenal hydrochloric acid-induced inhibition of pentagastrin-stimulated gastric acid output by 40 ± 12%. The mean integrated release of secretin response to duodenal acidification (3.9 ± 1.0 ng-[0-60] min/ml) was not affected by PYY (3.3 ± 0.9 ng-[0-60] min/ml). The present study demonstrates that PYY can interact with secretin and duodenal acidification in an additive fashion to inhibit pentagastrin-stimulated gastric acid secretion. Our results suggest that several hormones that are released postprandially can interact with each other to inhibit gastric acid secretion.
